This is an almost perfect quiz for a beginner! Don't give up!
Use it as a chance to stretch your skills.
Try this:
1. Build a funny saying in a String
2. Replace some words in that saying with variables that hold the =20
words you removed
3. Adjust each variable so it gets two or three different words that =20=
all could fit the saying, selected randomly
It's just like reverse Madlibs. You may get more ideas to keep =20
improving it too.
It's not a spoiler to get help on the Twitter side, or you can just =20
skip that part completely. Don't be afraid to change the task to suit =20=
your skill. If you learn something, you win.
You can even ask us questions on the personality side, just be clever =20=
in avoiding spoiler material. "Hey guys, I'm building a new =20
navigation system for NASA's next generation rocket and it needs to =20
randomly choose between three directions=85" We're here to help. :)
